House Set to Pass Two Bills to Boost Border Security

The U.S. House of Representatives is set to pass two bills Wednesday aimed at strengthening border security. Both bills were passed by the House Homeland Security Committee last September and are expected to be passed by the full House without debate. (See FAIR Legislative Update, Sept. 26, 2011)
The Jaime Zapata Border Enforcement Security Task Force Act (H.R. 915), introduced by Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX), provides a statutory framework for the existing Border Enforcement Security Task Force (BEST) program by authorizing $10 million annually through 2016 for the program’s operation. (See H.R. 915 at §3) The BEST task force is a border security initiative designed to facilitate communication and mutual assistance between agencies at different levels of government. (Id.)
Named after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Agent Jaime Zapata, who was brutally gunned down last year in Mexico by a drug cartel, H.R. 915 seeks to increase cooperation and information sharing between local, state, and federal agencies to strengthen collaborative efforts along the border. (Id.; see also FAIR Legislative Update, Feb. 22, 2011) Along with key state and local departments, federal agencies included in the BEST task force are ICE, Customs and Border Protection, the Drug Enforcement Administration, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Coast Guard, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office (USAO). (See H.R. 915 at §2)
The other border security bill up for consideration on the House Floor is the Secure Border Act of 2011 (H.R. 1299), introduced by Rep. Candice Miller (R-MI). Among other things, H.R. 1299 requires DHS to gain operational control (as defined in the Secure Fence Act of 2006) of the international borders within five years and directs the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to submit a plan to achieve this goal to Congress within 180 days of enactment. (See H.R. 1299 at § 2)
Specifically, DHS must present in the plan a detailed strategy covering staffing requirements, technology investments (such as unmanned aerial surveillance, sensors, and cameras) and infrastructure investments (such as border fencing and vehicle barriers), as well as a timeline for implementing security measures. (Id.) The bill also requires DHS to report within 60 days on the effectiveness of border security at Ports of Entry and the allocation of border resources. (Id.)
If passed by the House, the bills will head to the Senate for further consideration.
